[opensuse-kde] policy for KDE:Extra apps in KR49, KDF apps
I don't know if you are aware of this, but there is a sr for 9 days now requesting to add the new knights 2.5.0 to KR49 (and thus also Factory at some time) since KDE:Extra apparently doesn't want the 4.9 only change. https://build.opensuse.org/request/show/133367 I'm not quite sure how the policy is here... Personally, if knights is already in KDE:Extra, I'd prefer to decline the request to KR49 and suggest to create a new knights49 package in KDE:Extra which only build on the 4.9 distros and disable the other/old knights package for these...

AFAIK Extra is for packages that are not part of the released distro while KRxy contains distro packages, i.e. a KDE version + KUA in one repo. If knights is part of the distro it should not be in Extra. If it is not part of the distro it cannot go into KRxy. Not sure what to do if it will be part of 12.3. Probably move it from Extra to KRxy. Sven -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kde+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-kde+owner@opensuse.org

Sven Knights was one of the packages people wanted in distro... maybe we shall give it a chance...

Adding it to KR49 - before it's added to KDF - would be messy. I wonder if it couldn't just be accepted in KDE:Extra - since if it fails to build for < 4.9, the old binaries from succesful builds should still remain available to users of 12.1 and 12.2. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kde+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-kde+owner@opensuse.org
